What’s the low down on RAREfest?
“We had such a wonderful time exhibiting and the performances and talks the night before were so thought-provoking.
It was great to be in a room with disabled children celebrating their bodies and the spotlight being on those of us with rare diseases. As a disabled person, I felt seen!”
“This was an event like no other in all the patient events I have attended since 1996. An outstanding example of what can be achieved for people living with rare conditions when we collaborate.
Bravo Jo, CamRARE, and team. Making something so complex accessible and enjoyable requires immense skill and dedication. I’m in awe.”
“RAREfest was a fantastic celebration of all things rare! An amazing multi-stakeholder gathering, driving recognition and change for rare diseases.
Wonderful to see friends in person and make new acquaintances – you really can’t beat face to face!”
